It has been so much fun "peeving" while Jezer is away. Thanks to everyone for your support and contributions. Today's peeve is about increased service charges. For what? Why almost anything, of course!! Peeve away...

Businesses can "service charge" you to death! I hate when that happens!

Airlines are probably the worst. I rarely travel by air, but I keep hearing stories on the news about every little thing that they charge extra for now. So many hidden fees...... yikes!

Good peeve, taiga!

We took our Gdaughter to the circus a short time ago. It cost 7 bucks for popcorn in a small cereal sized box and it was stale.. to boot!

Just like our Gov't, all businesses keep thinking up ways to double up on all fees!
